The loss knocked BC out of postseason contention

BREVARD, N.C.-In a match that saw 31 shots combined,
the Brevard College men’s soccer team was blanked by Lenoir-Rhyne, 1-0, in a
South Atlantic Conference match Wednesday afternoon at Brevard Soccer Field in
Brevard, N.C.

The Bears (9-7-1, 4-5-1 SAC) notched consecutive 1-0 wins while boosting
their playoff positioning while the Tornados (5-10, 3-7 SAC) dropped their

Freshman Daniel Wheldon missed a gorgeous blast from 30 yards out by a
matter of inches early in the second half.

L-R’s Zach Carles headed in a shot off of Josh Alderson in the 81st
minute to break a scoreless tie. Despite a late push by BC, the Bears made the
goal stand.

Both goalies were put to the test while BC’s Heath Turner earned six
saves while L-R’s Stefan Dill stopped four shots.

The Bears Ben Jones led both squads with 11 shots, while four landed on
target. Freshman Ryan McPhillips paced the Tornados team with four shots while
freshman teammates Winston Haddock and Wheldon each tallied two.
